Two losses on a slow night

Penn League Report is rolling out a list of the top 30 prospects in the Short Season NY-Penn League, ranking Evan DeLuca 28th. Check out the write-up, it includes a note about a recent velocity dip. Prospects 1-25 are forthcoming.

Triple-A Scranton had their doubleheader with Syracuse rained out. They’re not scheduled to play them anymore this season, so there’s a pretty good chance they won’t make these games up at all. Meanwhile, David Phelps will return from his rehab assignment and start on Saturday.

Both Double-A Trenton and High-A Tampa had scheduled off days. In fact, their entire leagues were off.

Short Season Staten Island is off until Wednesday for the All-Star Game, which will be played tomorrow. Four Yankees farmhands were named to the AL squad.
